Ronin Session 42

• The party moved down the stairs and into steam banks.

• Izaki discovered the function of pipe ribbing down the tunnel. Much like on a farm, they were livestock refreshers, though spewing veils of fire and steam instead of cool water.

• Dodged a gorgon, one massive metal bovine. Thunder followed after...
  

• Narrowly avoided a gorgon stampede! (which would have killed any who failed the save)

• Went unnoticed by salamander ranchers.

• Entered a planar corral with a multitude of surrounding passages.

• Met the crazy halfling planeswalker Arin, lost on some mad adventure, but friendly enough. Decided to help the party.
  

• Took the smooth, dark pipe down for what seemed like miles, listening to the sounds of forges, machinery and beasts off in other chambers.

• Finduilas was telepathically contacted by what Arin called the Phoenix.

• Discovered the great Wheel, pulled by gorgons, which powered the forges and machinery.

• Matthias created a distraction with a gorgon phantasm, riling up the beasts of burden, and allowing the group to pass unnoticed.

• Ran through a red-hot pipe that filled with fire every thirty seconds, flames hot on their heels!

• Found the meteor's molten heart and walked across the fissure amidst a nexus of walkways.

• Entered the presence of the Keeper, a four-armed efreeti of terrible power, with strange servants and a menacing audience chamber, complete with hostage Phoenix.

• Matthias attempted negotiations, but some things just aren't up for debate.

• The group entered a trial by combat versus two hulking gorgon bulls.
